The very last photo is my favorite. This is a close up shot of a large, maybe 5 feet tall 6 feet long vertical garden. So incredibly beautiful. Adrienne took a tour a couple years back. She said that before Flora Grubb (which by the way is the actual name of the owner), the property was home to a auto shop. I love the way FG decided to keep the old, vintage cars as part of the garden. I also adore the way that they use scale - similar to the way nature intends. Soaring ceilings and big, frothy palms down to intricate succulents - even 1 found in a teacup. My eyes were mesmerized moving through the space.

I am grateful to live in an part of the country that chooses to support companies like Flora Grubb. So, that my fancy can be tickled by her choice of aesthetic and quality. Her vision. Her gift of inspiration of which I bring into my own world, my own yard, working with my hands, growing my own food, Red Oak lettuce.
